Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example. This section used to be split into jeeps, parts and other categories, but recent changes to eBay will require this information to be recoded.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

“Willys Jeep CJ2A, rebuilt GM 2.8 V6 with paper work, original T90 3 speed transmission and Dana 18 transfer case. Body was recently removed and all rust repaired. Rebuilt brake system with new master and slave cylinder. (Stops very well) All electrical has been rewired. Rebuilt steering box, full roll cage, rear seat, winch, tow bar, and good tires.”
It needs some work.

“This is a 1950 Willy’s Jeep CJ-3A barn find – kind of… This Jeep has been in storage about 10 years, other than the wheels, seats and roll-bar, as far as I can tell is stock and runs. The Jeep has been in the family for several decades and was used almost exclusively as a trail vehicle for hunting – long before today’s side-by-sides became popular. I inherited it in 2020 but is now in my garage. While it does run, when engaging the clutch, a knock occurs and the clutch does not engage so the Jeep is in Neutral until fixed. All linkage moves, but nothing happens but the knock.
Other than checking fluids and purging the fuel line before starting it about a month ago, nothing else has been done. It also comes with a complete spare rear axle as seen in the pictures. No idea why the axle was with the Jeep, no reason to believe that the stock one is in need of repair, but it was with the Jeep in storage. While I’d love to take a crack at the clutch, I know it will likely take a bit more to become road worthy, I just don’t have the passion and knowledge necessary to do this Jeep justice. Here’s where you come in… Clean Title and current non-op registration.”
UPDATE: Price dropped to $6900.
(12/11/2021) No mention as to whether the plow is included.

It seems to me that the driver-side opening is cut down a bit, as if someone had tried to replicate a prototype jeep?

“Selling my 1950 Willys CJ3A. Mostly all original! 134 flat head engine and all drivetrain are original. New leaf springs provide a little bit of lift over original height. I’ve been working on this for a few years and just don’t have the time to finish this. This does run and is drivable but it’s been garaged the past few years and maintained. Plenty of new parts already installed and more parts waiting to be installed.
New parts include: leaf springs, shocks, BFG mud terrain tires, water pump, carburetor, spark plugs and wires, all new brakes (wheel cylinders, lines, master cyl), engine and drivetrain fluids/lubricants, and various other parts like gaskets and windshield seal when those are ready for installation.
Fenders, grill, hood, windshield frame and tailgate were all media blasted and primed. Have been working on the typical body problems found with these old Willys.”
UPDATE: Still Available.
(11/30/2020) This appears to be a CJ-3A with a replacement tub, but hard to tell for sure given the pics.

“1950 Willy’s CJ3A. This would be great for either a restoration project or parts! Have the L-head motor out of it that would need to be gone through and put in to make it original. Also have most of an F-head motor went into the following Willy’s models. Drivetrain is all in place. Probably easiest to get a new tub as the floor is in pretty rough shape. Most body parts are included and all gauges in place. Have windshield (needs new glass), a heater.
Missing seat frames and does not have original rims. Would need some new tires as current don’t hold air very long (long enough to get onto a trailer though). It all goes together and not looking to sell individual parts unless you’re going to pay the asking price of it complete for just the parts you want. No Title. PM with questions, more pics, or to come look at. I just ask you be serious if you would like to schedule a time to look at. Thank you.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
(01/05/2021) Roger Martin shared this plow jeep. It’s got a CJ-5 hardtop and what looks to be a DJ windshield.
“Willys cj2a or 3a repowered with buick dauntless v6. Runs and drives. 4×4 works. Dualamatic locking hubs. Heated cab. Plow works. Be a good build project. Have extra parts available.”
Runs and drives, but has a rough body. Also has some EasyLok hubs.
